Peaceful unspoilt bush and farm land on the Great Dividing Range. 1 hour from Canberra, 3 hours from Sydney. Turn off highway down 6.5km private gravel road, then follow short dirt tracks into campsites. Choice of two secluded campgrounds over 1km apart; only one private group per campground. Campfires allowed when conditions permit, free firewood supplied. No services (power, water, sewerage, rubbish collection or wifi). Peppermint Gum Group Campground is well established and suits larger groups of friends or 2-3 families (max 16 guests). Located in 1.6ha (4 acres) of grassy woodland, it offers a good choice of mown campsites in shade or sun. A large communal clearing is centrally located for group gatherings, with a rustic camp kitchen hut for all-weather cooking and eating. A pit toilet is a short walk away, with handwashing station and views! Snowgums Campsite is a smaller campsite for up to 6 people, on a low forested ridge overlooking Sandhills Creek below. 3 separate mown tent sites and a campfire clearing in protected snowgums forest. Several kilometres of marked walking trails within the property. Explore the creek line, hike up the mountain to the old stone trig point, walk to the swimming hole on the creek with jetty, picnic area and rowboat. Numerous picnic spots. A swimming dam, jetty, and picnic sites are accessible via marked walking and driving tracks. There are also several kms of walking tracks directly from the campsite along Sandhills Creek and the 'mountain paddock'. Owners live further along the road on the property, and can be contacted if needed. A separate AirBnB house is located on the property; please respect the privacy of fellow guests.

Camping with the whole family!
Loved our stay at the Peppermint Gum Camp site. Lots of exciting natural spaces for the children to explore and room for our dogs. We particularly enjoyed cooking on the open fire, playing around in the dam and the creek walk adventure! Marty was great, and free fire wood is a nice inclusion. Will absolutely be back.

Family getaway
We had such a great time at this site. Facilities were excellent. Beautiful views. Lots of fun at the dam and on the creek walk. Totally private and great for our dogs. Lots for the children to explore. Marty was super helpful and lovely. Can’t wait to go back.

Great experience
Thanks for a great weekend Martina. The site is secluded and beautiful. We arrived with a fresh load of firewood dropped. The camp kitchen here is super functional, with great undercover seating to enjoy our meals. The walks to the dam were great and the kids loved paddling in the boat. We will definitely be back - a spectacular location! Cheers Rich

If you want a quiet place where no one is around, this is the place. Town is not too far away if you want supplies. Some might have trouble finding the camp site.

5 stars!! Stunning campsite!
Amazing!! We absolutely loved it! There is so much space to spread out and all the nice amenity touches made it so comfortable! Two pit toilets with views second to none, hand washing facilities, a bush kitchen with large dining table and multiple fire pit options. Our boys loved taking the little boat out onto the dam. Will definitely be back!!
